America’s Got Talent 2025 Finale Poll Results: We Predict the Winner
America’s Got Talent 2025 Reveals Two-Night Finale Details

The show kicks off with a bunch of artists singing Happy Birthday to AGT which turns 20 this year. YAY. After, it’s a recap of last night’s final performance show. If you watched the recap at 8 pm, this is gonna seem redundant.

Micah Palace and Manuel Turizo

Terry introduces “Spanglish singer” Micah Palace (you know, ironing board guy, the dude Mel accused of treating crew badly) who has been paired up with Manuel Turizo. The two sing a tune in Spanish.

Leo High School Choir join Aloe Blacc

The choir sings “I’m the Man” with Aloe Blacc. This song would have been a good competition song. The choir is basically singing backups for Aloe. But it’s nice.

Jourdan Blue and Danny O’Donoghue of The Script

Jourdan Blue joins Danny O’Donoghue of The Script to sing his audition song “Breakeven.” This is pretty great! Beautiful harmonies and blending. Danny is a generous duet partner.

Steve Ray Ladson and Leo High School Choir

Steve Ray Ladson sings his audition song about boots as Leo dancing around him in cowboy gear.

Afterward, Aloe gives the Leo High School Choir a pep talk, while Danny O’Donoghue offers to take Jourdan Blue out on tour with The Script!

LightWire and Leona Lewis perform

X Factor winner Leona Lewis sings her cover of Snow Patrol’s “Light Up” as LightWire performs more rainforest stuff behind her. Leona is set to perform a residency in Las Vegas around the holiday season. She’ll sing her hits and a bunch of Christmas tunes.

Mat Franco, Shin Lim, Piff the Magic Dragon

All three AGT magicians star in popular Las Vegas shows. All three are featured in a fun video clip, where they perform their respective acts on stage in their respective venues. But there is also a fun backstory featuring Jesse Eisenberg from the movie Now You See it, Now You Don’t. There’s car pimping. The trio wind up on the live stage to deliver the card with the winners name on it to Terry.

Team Recycle and Ciara join forces

Ciara performs her hit “Level Up” as dance group Team Recycle join the backup dancers. Ciara dropped a new album a few weeks ago.

Sirca Marea and Jessica Sanchez perform together

Jessica Sanchez sings her competition song “Golden Hour” by Jvke as the romantic couple Sirca Marea perform behind her. It’s lovely! Jessica fells like Sirca Marea made the song come alive.

Reigning champ, Richard Goodall

Richard is still working as a janitor at the local Indiana school. However he has traveled and performed all over the country. He married his fiance and they bought a house. He also met his biological dad who had no idea he existed. They look alike. Now, he sings his original song, “Long Time Coming,” accompanied on electric guitar by Journey founder, Neal Schon. The song is a soaring power ballad. Watch out for that key change!

Chris Turner Freestyles with Special Guests

Chris Turner picks folks out of the audience to help him freestyle rap. He works with an engaged couple–Kelly Watson and Bozoma Saint. He performs a rap based on fun facts they told him on the spot. The lady, Keely is about to star with Jimmy Fallon on his new show On Brand.

Sainted Trap Choir performs with Mama Duke

She performs her audition song “Feels So Good” with the very cool AGT alum Sainted Trap Choir performing behind her. They call Mama “Fearless and what the culture needs!”

FINALLY RESULTS AFTER THE BREAK. Takes freaking forever. But not before a video clip featuring friends, family and partners of the Top 10.
